The　problem　of　antibiotic　contamination　in　the　environment　has　attracted　much　attention　in　recent　years.　However,　studies　on　antibiotic　contamination　in　groundwater　have　only　emerged　in　the　last　15　years.　In　this　study,　we　systematically　reviewed　the　detection　methods,　distribution　characteristics,　risk,　fate,　and　sources　of　antibiotics　in　groundwater　in　China,　listed　the　concentrations　of　the　main　antibiotic　types,　and　obtained　the　maximum　concentrations　by　comparing　the　literature　published　in　the　last　10　years.　The　results　show　that　65　antibiotics　were　detected　in　groundwater　in　China,　with　sulfonamides　and　quinolones　receiving　the　most　attention.　Antibiotic　concentrations　are　influenced　by　hydrogeological　conditions　and　seasonal　variations,　and　the　ecological　risk　in　most　areas　is　low　to　medium　risk,　which　is　relatively　manageable.　The　highest　concentrations　found　in　most　of　the　literatures　were　in　the　range　of　10-1000　ng/L,　but　the　maximum　concentration　can　reach　47,444.5　ng/L,　which　requires　extra　attention.　In　addition,　this　study　makes　recommendations　for　improving　groundwater　monitoring　surveys　and　protection　measures　to　prevent　the　antibiotic　contamination　of　groundwater　more　effectively.
